Defining our identity: We are physicians, not ‘providers’
• We are internists and do NOT merely “provide” health care services to our patients in a transaction
• The term “provider” is a marketplace term and undermines the role of physicians treating patients in meaningful, caring relationships
TAKE THE PLEDGE
“I pledge not to use the word ‘provider’ when
referring to physicians, and further to encourage my
colleagues to do the same.”
Help spread the word:
#physiciannotproviderACP Board of Regents Chair, Doug DeLong, MD, and ACP President, Robert McLean, MD taking the pledge
